ACOF, A Community of Friends, is a pioneering agency that has successfully implemented the permanent supportive housing model throughout LA County. As one of the few organizations offering supportive and service-enriched affordable housing for homeless individuals and families living with mental illness, ACOF strives to provide safe and affordable homes for those with special needs. With a focus on individuals having less than 30% of the area median income (AMI) and living with mental, physical, or developmental disabilities, ACOF works relentlessly to improve mental and physical health outcomes.

Currently, ACOF accommodates over 2,700 individuals and families in their buildings, with an impressive figure of 95% of special needs tenants remaining housed after one year and 69% after three years. ACOF ensures long-term housing stability and self-sufficiency by offering services such as medication monitoring, health services, counseling, substance abuse recovery, and independent living skills assistance.
